Rinse pouch under tap water. Place pouch in path of water flow in aquarium filter. For new aquariums or when ammonia or nitrite is detected, recharge every 5 days for the first month, then every 2 weeks for the second month. For an established aquarium, recharge every 2 weeks. When nitrate is detected, recharge every 5 days until nitrate is reduced to 20 ppm or less. Replace pouch after 2 months. To recharge, dissolve 4 tbsp of API aquarium salt in 8 oz. of warm tap water. Soak pouch for 2 hours then rinse lightly in tap water.

I have an oscar and plecostamos in a 55 gal that I could not control nitrates even with massive water changes. 2 pouches added to filter and recharged every week now has the nitrates down below 20. Would recommend for anyone with an overstocked tank. But use common sense and still do weekly water changes. This is not a replacement for water changes, but when that's not enough, this works great.
